Comparing anuran performance and movement

Creator:: Bredeweg, Evan M.
Abstract:: Movement in an important component of an animal’s life cycle when it relies on both aquatic and terrestrial habitats. When multiple species overlap in the use of these habitats, they rely on other methods to reduce competition for shared resources. This dataset measured the jumping performance and movement behavior of...

The Influence of Wildfire and Invasive Vegetation on Mule Deer

Creator:: Schuyler, Elizabeth
Abstract:: The western United States has experienced large-scale degradation due to land use and land cover changes, invasion of annual grasses, and expansion of woody plants into grass and shrublands and the resultant altered fire regimes. These landscape-scale changes have coincided with declining mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) populations, making habitat loss...

Evaluating tools used to estimate and manage browse available to wintering moose on the Copper River Delta, Alaska

Creator:: Smythe, Sharon E.
Abstract:: Ungulates comprise some of the most well researched and intensely managed wildlife populations on earth. As such, they are recognized as ideal study subjects for developing and modifying management tools or theories (Danell et al. 1994, Shipley 2010). An introduced moose (Alces alces gigas) population on the Copper River Delta...

Relationships among in-stream physical habitat, land use, and geology in small coastal streams of northern Oregon

Creator:: Scott, Larissa E.
Abstract:: Salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest are at historic lows and many populations continue to decline. Previous studies have linked salmonid declines to land use through degradation of in-stream physical habitat, but few of these studies have taken geology into consideration. This study relates habitat parameters known to be important...

Environmental variables as predictors of fish assemblages in the Tillamook Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Rose, Cathleen E.
Abstract:: The Tillamook and Kilchis subbasins of the Tillamook Bay watershed (Oregon Coast Range) have differences in geology and land use history and, therefore, varied environmental conditions that could affect fish assemblages. Fifty-two randomly selected wadeable stream reaches in these two subbasins were surveyed for stream habitat and fish assemblage composition...

Using Satellite Imagery to Count Nesting Albatross from Space

Creator:: Dolliver, Jane E.
Abstract:: One fundamental concern in conservation biology is species abundance. For many taxa, however, these data are costly to obtain via direct observation and thus limited in geographic or temporal scope. Very high-resolution satellite imagery provides a means to address these limitations and provide remotely-sensed counts of large, colonial species. We...

Seasonal movement, residency, and migration patterns of Wilson's Snipe (Gallinago delicata) across the annual cycle in the Willamette Valley of Oregon.

Creator:: Cline, Brittany B.
Abstract:: Studies of avian movement ecology afford essential insights regarding species' life histories, population dynamics, habitat and resource requirements, and other ecological relationships. While it is widely recognized that events in different stages of the annual cycle have important implications for processes in avian ecology, evolution, and conservation, challenges associated with...

Dispersal Behavior in African Buffalo (Syncerus caffer) : Tradeoffs Between Nutritional Resources and Disease Exposure

Creator:: Spaan, Robert Steven
Abstract:: Dispersal facilitates population health and maintains resilience in species via gene flow. Adult dispersal occurs in some species, is often facultative, and is poorly understood, but has important management implications, particularly with respect to disease spread. Although the role of adult dispersal in spreading disease has been documented, the potential...

Patterns of coastal cutthroat trout survival in two headwater stream networks

Creator:: Berger, Aaron M.
Abstract:: Mark-recapture methods were used to examine watershed-scale survival rates of coastal cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii) from two headwater stream networks located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range, Oregon. Differences in survival were explored among spatial (stream segment, stream network [main stem or tributaries], and watershed) and temporal...
